LOL little dude got claimed 😂 Spencer was like "this one's mine now"
I like making the distinction between "aggression" and "being dominant". Our 6+ year old boar does plenty of rumbling at his baby buddy but he's never shown any kind of aggression. He's always been a gentle soul, and his buddy, now over a year old, has thankfully turned out just as gentle. He treats his old man very well. ^_^
I wish you could clone yourself so we could have one of you in every state. I'm all the way across the country in North Carolina and wish I had someone like you and a place like the LAGPR closer to me. Nowhere around me for hours has piggies for adoption, and I've yet to find anyone as knowledgeable as you about guinea pigs. I've learned so much from your channel to help me with my two girls that I just got a month ago. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
I got mine from petco. You just have to sit there for an hour inspecting every inch of every pig. Then make sure to bring it to the vet before introduction
@@xxterpzxx581 One of mine is from Petco, because the nearby rescues only had male guinea pigs (none of them were neutered) and I was trying to find a friend for my female guinea pig. I try not to buy from Petco/PetSmart because the way they handle the guinea pigs is sad. I feel bad buying an animal from those big chain stores when there are tons of guinea pigs who need a home, but I can't drive five hours out then back...
@@xxterpzxx581 I went to Scotty’s Animal’s website and used his list of rescues per state. Nothing close to comparable to Saskia is here in Florida, but when I filled out my form, I was able to see options and some were pretty far away. A few days later I was contacted by email by someone who had somehow seen my request and I was so excited that she was only an hour away! So now I have a baby boy that I’m soon to introduce to my ten month old...
This is exactly what happened to my guinea pig back in January, I brought home a peruvian who was only 5 weeks old. He fit like a glove! You taught me everything I know about guinea pigs and I know I give them the best care cause of you. :) I actually bought a CC cage right after I saw your cage video. Great content!
I bet you as well as your piggies are loving the new cage!! I think you tend to interact and bond more with your piggies if the cage is bigger and has an open top . Did you find that too?
I could watch bonding videos all day. Don’t stop! You are awesome!!!
I was literally binge watching these bonding videos looking for a baby boy bonding one from u, and BOOM
Haha awesome!!!! 🌻
Very cute how the adult guinea pig keeps shielding the baby. "Must protect the BEAN!"
andrielisilien Baby bean 🥺😂
Love your video!!! You are AMAZING Saskia!!❤️
Most beautiful, perfect couple lol
Shout out to baby Lucky for being so adorable. LOL
Omg thank you I was worried they were fighting
Thank you so much for posting. Yes, Spencer, the lettuce is greener over the fence! I hope that your ulcers are healing up well.
They are so adorable! 😍 I love how the baby tries to hide under the older guy, so cute. ❤️
Saskia, wishing you, your family and everyone else a very safe, healthy and Happy Easter 🐣🐇🐣!!!
Oh my - Easter! Totally forgot about that. I love Easter! You too honey. 🌻
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue Thank you so much Saskia, you are seriously the best and the sweetest person and I love your channel💐🤗🥰♥️🐹 P.S. I love Easter too but, I guess there's more pressing things going on in the world at the moment!
The size difference is killing me 😂!
i tried to bond my male guinea pig with 6 different males, the final pig was a baby boy, who he loved right away and they still love each other!
I had to brother's that lived happily together for about 2 years until one day I heard them fighting so rushed to check on them and found them both freaked out and Pikelet was dribbling blood (from a bite on his mouth) and saliva!!! So I separated them and gave them their own space but, side by side, which seemed to do the trick because after a couple of days, I tried floor time with them and they acted as if there had never been a problem!!! But they never lived together again. Guinea pigs are so cute and adorable yet such funny fickle little things. Thank you for another great video Saskia 😊❤️🐹💖🤗♥️
Yes there is often no rhyme or reason to their likes or sudden dislikes. In my experience once a fight got bad enough where they drew blood it is best to not have them live together anymore. Side by side divided by a grid is a great option and make sure their individual living spaces are large enough. 🌻
I love Guinea pig squeeks 🥰🐹
when you were holding lucky at the start 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Awww poor little guy 😂
Lucky II should be renamed "Golden Boy" if ya know what I mean xD
Spencers bum fluff is so cute
I love your videos!
My older guinea pig wouldn't stop attacking and humping my 1 month old guinea pig I couldn't put them in the same cage at all. When the baby was in the room both my older guinea pigs would squeak so loud it sounded like screaming.
I am SOOOO hoping this happens for me this weekend. I have a 9 1/2 month old who needs a buddy. I have found a 3 week old baby that is needing a home, so I’m really hoping the age difference will make for a happy home like this. Hopefully Buckey will behave himself and be more of an adult and less the teenager since he is on the cutoff between the two!
Edited three weeks later: I held off on introducing them and will most likely do it this weekend. I wanted to give the baby some time to settle into our house and my routine. I also sewed two more full sets of fleece with my mother. (Two large pads to cover the bottom of the cage and pads for underneath the corner house and the corner fringed “tent”, and what I call a pee pad. I made rectangle shaped pads to go in the space where Buckey eats hay and poops the most. It makes cleaning so much faster and keeps the small down to have several pads for each area that he poops and pees the most!
Are baby boy brothers always a good match?
Hello, I hope you see this. I have a 4 month old and 8 week old males and would like to introduce them. Any other advice?
Hey saska the male guinea pig i have is a lethal and im trying to bond the a normal guinea pig and plus the old one try tapping him cause the oldest bit the lethal's ear
My youngest guinea pig just attacks the biggest one
awe its so tiny!
Hi i Got My 1st Guinea Pig Back in April of 2022 And Today July 17th 2022 And They Are Both Female And My 1st Guinea Pig is So Sweet And She’s Not Dominant And Eventually Should i Put Them Together I Have A Big Cage
Why do guinea pigs rumble strut?
Can you pair a neutered female with a neutered male?? I kinda want to know 😅
Can you add a 5 week old baby to a duo of boars to make a trio and would they accept him since he's so little?
Does anyone know at what point it’s not a successful bond? I’m currently trying to bond a 2 year old boar with a baby who looks to be about a month old. The adult has been humping him and rumble strutting for 3 days now and won’t leave him alone except for some rare moments when they’re both eating or laying next to each other. He hasn’t hurt the little guy but won’t stop chasing him and I thought that it was supposed to end after a few hours
It doesn't sound like buying a piggie from a pet store is good. We don't have piggie rescues here. Where is the best place to get a piggie? Would a breeder be better than a pet store? Thank u.
I was wondering if this would be good option for me.... Since the only resource for my guinea pig a buddy is the pet store my step daughter got him from.
We've got two girls who are around ten months old now, my partner picked up two other girls around 13 weeks old, how should be go about introducing these two pairs of pigs so we can bond them as a group of four?
this is odd but can two neutered boars be with two sows? my cage is 18+ sq feet and ive heard that 13.5 sq feet is okay for 4 guinea pigs, is that true or no? ps i love what you do and i loove that you educate the public about proper pig care!
you shouldn't have two males with females as they can get very dominant and fight over them
How old are the bigger pigs in these videos?
I think about 7 months
I just got a little baby boy, already have a almost year old piggy. The baby's name is Pichu and my almost year old's name is Pickachu my son named them❤. Pika and Pichu!🐹+🐹=😍❤
Mine fight I have a baby and a adult there both female and they fight a lot! What should I do
When donding, could you do it with siblings? Not a male and female, but two males or two females?
Hoi
Does the All Living thing DELUXE cage work for guine pigs? If I remove the gray ramp/hide it’s 46.9in L x 22.8in W PLEASE LET ME KNOW ❤️
That’s a little smaller than the standard 2x4 requirements for 1-2 guinea pigs. Seems fine, but don’t be afraid to go bigger. Those are definitely the minimum requirements after all.
AWW! Love this vid!
oh noo why is she holding him like that
I’m first yay
Beautiful babys
I don't care if he is a adult or a baby they are still babies in my heart
You are the most important and wonderful person in the whole entire world Saskia!!!
and you have taught me so much on what to do with my 2 boy guinea pigs at home , thank you
Whole
She done same 2 me
She makes me so happy!
“Oh, Spencer jeez, what a mess.” Poor little guy got scent-marked. Hate to laugh about it...but I did. Interesting video. I’ve never seen a baby bonding and was surprised at the lack of aggression (as well as the amount of urine.)
😂
😹😹😹
This is so adorable!❤️
The intro to this video made my boys go nuts on wheeking 😂😂
I have a young piggy that looks just like Lucky, we are going to pick up an older friend for him tomorrow so this video was perfect timing! Thank you for taking such good care of your piggies.
OmGGP, Lucky (both of them) is so tiny! What gorgeous boys, I want to put them my pocket xD Darwin and Spencer are also very handsome! Haha, the boys (L1 and Darwin) playing wheelbarrow, so funny :D Lucky following Darwin, aww! Lucky 2 also following Spencer, ieen when covered in gunk, cuties. "Protect me, new dad!" "Don't go under me, you little thing *brbrrrrb* we can talk, though!"
Not sure if you'll see this or not, but all of my family is out of work because of quarantine so a vet isnt an option sadly, but my guinea keeps sneezing, his breathing sounds pretty clear and thats the only symptom of a uri he has. I was wondering if you had any over the counter antibiotics suggestions i could get / tips as to what to do? It'd really be appreciated.
Edit: I live on the east coast and none of the vets close by take guinea pigs for a reasonable price, he's also 3 years old.
I would recommend watching saskia’s (or other guinea pig channel’s) videos on sneezing. Might be if some help. Hope you and your pigget the help you need! Stay strong!
I see probably all the videos, but, i have two baby girls, the two have the same age of baby luck i think, in the pat store they say they have 4 montha old but they are so small as baby luck, First i buy one and 14 days later got the second, and i dont understand the behavior of them, they run around the cage, jump, stay doing the same sound of baby luck, can you make a video bounding two baby girls ?
Yes!
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue thank u so much! I learn so much about them with u, but this two sometimes looks like they love each other because they sleep together, and sometimes looks like they hate each other running around the cage and make these screaming noises
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue and sorry for the bad inglish, im from Brazil 😅
love watching and learinging things you teach very well thank you for all you guys are doing
Thankyou for all you do!!!
Awww he trying to nurse. and he’s probably not used to being out side in the cage with out a place to hide in. they are both so adorable . God bless you and thank you for sharing
Literally said he wasn't trying to nurse. You deaf? Said he was trying to hide.
Poor Lucky #2, wrong time wrong place. I think both babies were showing clear signs of having jyst been weaned. Both were looking for milk and "hiding" under the adult.
Enjoy your bath Lucky #2!! Poor little dude.
I love hearing Weedwhacker and all the piggies in the background.
Last Friday (April 3rd 2020) was by far the worst day of my life, after 7 years of caring for my guinea pig Speedy. We had to euthanise her, turned out she began to have brittle bones due to her age, and she took a wrong step breaking the bone at the elbow, as a result she couldn’t get around the cage to go eat, sleep or poop (yes she actually had separate for these things). She started losing a ton of weight, we tried hand feeding her but that wouldn’t work a day later we went to the vet (I personally wanted to go the day before, but couldn’t because or corona). At the vet they weighted her (just over 600 grams, instead of the healthy 1kg), her bowels were almost completely empty, turned out she had trouble swallowing her food (why we don’t know) and her body temperature was already 3 degrees Celsius below average. On top of all of this she also had something on her back which could have been a tumor. As you can see we were out of option and euthanising was the best option. She slowly passed away in my arms, giving one last barely hearable squeak. All of this happened in 2 days, before Speedy was perfectly healthy and in less than two days it was over. Her cage (we have a cage for indoors (winter) and outdoors (summer)) still stands in my room, it is scary because normally I could hear her eat or could see her sleeping (she was partially white so you could easily see her). Rest in peace speedy, you will not be forgotten, especially with the thousands (I’m not joking) of photos of you on my phone.
Thanks for reading.I had to let this out, seemed like this community was the best since everyone here loves guinea pigs( unlike my parents. (They used to call speedy a “Rat”, it was only a nickname, but it still made me furious)
Some advise: love your guinea pig now that you still can, it could be over the next day as it was with Speedy.
Hi Saskia! Love your videos!
This is what happened when I bough home a baby Guinea pig on November! My older piggy was confused but was excited to have a lil sis!
Same here except the younger one was more exited :)
Early
Definitely bath time for that little guy...phew...stinky stuff! Thanks for sharing Saskia. Piggy behaviour is fascinating.
Male Guinea Pigs, love them, but harder to handle them.
I have 2 agressive males in a split cage. Introduced a baby boy from an misgendered oops pregnancy. I have the cage walls baby proofed but the baby freely gos through the divider. He gets along with both boys.
I first got my 4 week old skinny pig two days ago, today I got a 3 month old skinny pig. Both females! They bonded great together!!!
FIRST!!! Love the vids!! So much cuteness!!! ☺️☺️☺️🥰🥰🥰
I loved the intro 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
I bonded a baby boy with my adult male, and my adult male is always rumble-strutting the baby, but he's never drew blood or anything super aggressive.
One of my gpigs is called Lucky... He also has epic eyeshadow. Haha
I havetwo guinea pigs and I've had them since they were young got them from PetSmart one had a problem for them to the back at that solved well one of them is super friendly will let you love them one will come up to you meet you in the morning if you try to touch him he runs hell smell you and all but I was wondering is there a way I can get him out of that
You can start hand feeding him slowly daily, several times a day
So while ur hand feeding you can try to pet him with ur other hand. It will help
I totally respect what you do!...keep up the good work!!!
Thank you and yes will do!!!
Fuck I'm so happy I just bought a baby yesterday. I was scared the mspca would only have adults. My first and main pig is about 4 to 5 months and my newbie is a few weeks. I still haven't bonded them but I'm so excited to. I think I have to wait 2 weeks to introduce them tho. I think
I just love the babies 😭
I had a male guinea pig once. Total psycho. Lived with his brother for years and out of the blue started attacking him! Had to seperate them. We had them nuitered and got them both a (baby) girlfriend. The sweet one was in heaven but the psycho started attacking her, a baby! We put him in solitary but that made him very sad so we tried again and he still attacked. In the end we made them a cage with a kind of see trough department for the mean one. He could see them, hear and smell them but couldn’t touch them. He was very sweet to me and my family though, but he just hated other guinea pigs. He died a year ago. I really miss him.
Thank you. What age difference will the old guinea pig need to be for this works well?
the age of the older boy doesnt matter at all. Any age really
Thank you, this was very helpful.
So cute
Baybe Piggies! Love them all xxxx
I know right. So tiny as compared to the huge guys🥺
Cool I have 4 bonded boars too they get along well
How did you bond them!? We have 2, 12 weeks boys and a 3week boy. Do you think I can bond them?! Any tips please!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!! this the only video i could find to help me! i have an adult and a baby and this is just what i needed!
When introducing a baby guinea pig to an adult and the adult humps, is there a chance that it could hurt the baby accidentally?
I have not seen that happen yet
First!
Amber my grandmothers last name was Van Der Ploeg!
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue thats funny cause ik spreek Nederlands!😂
@@ambervdploeg2533 ja ik ook!!
Those darn boys! Are trios more successful than pairs?
My piggy heard the intro with the wheels and they went CRAZY 😂
I really hope saskia does more new Guinea pig bonding videos I really miss those
I will have to do this very soon...I will need to quarantine the new baby before introducing them right?
I just got my boy 2 baby boys because he lost his best mate Gucci almost 3 weeks ago 😭😭😭 my boy demon could smell the babies but I thought he was hurting them when he would chase them around ...... But today I was like I'll see how they go today and he was ok with them a little chase here and there and purring but that's normal....... Fingers crossed they stay best mates the babies are 6 weeks old demon is a year old in July
I can't find help or content to guide me in the right direction and was hoping you saw ski could help even though I know this video is a bit older. I've had a long hair silky male who has been pretty much by himself other than with the family that adopted him before us and they'd previously got him from a pet store. We have a little baby boy we just adopted and after a few of the meetings introductions they're both in the same space but the baby is still very terrified won't even look at me won't take food for my hand but does eat and the older pig has relocated himself sitting in front of the water bottle on the other side of the cage which is very strange and I know that the older guinea pig absolutely loves the little one was also jealous and I noticed a lot of lot of licking on the baby's face he looks a lot and then always wants to crawl in and be in his way or in his food. It's been a few days now they both just sit on opposite sides of their home. The little one at first gave our big boy a run for his money and was humping and chasing and still does a bit. What can I don't to help little Gizmo adapt not be gone and sibling sick and terrified of me.I mean if I look in his direction across the room he turns his head into his blanket Also if my older jellybean pig maybe garden or taking food from the little one and going hungry maybe. But also another curiosity is the little Gizmo seems completely silent.Only in the beginning I heard the baby tiny rumble and tiny squeaks.
I love your video saskia.
Dangit
It looked like he was trying to get milk out of Spencer fr 😂
why did my elder guinea pig tend to bite my baby guinea pig
Hallo Saskia wil de kleine bij Spencer drinken
I’m about to pair my older male (4 years) with a 6 week old male... is it likely that when the younger male hits the teenage phase could they fall out? Hopefully the bond sticks!
It depends on space etc for me it went fine but I reccomend multi entrance hides so they cant trap each other excersize and just dont separate unless blood is drawn as people tend to separate too quick
So spencer just busted on the other male
Would this work with an 8 week old boy?
My question is can you do a introduction for two males that are roughly the same age? Or does it only have to be a baby and an adult?
I've introduced two boys who were around the same age, teenagers/adults, and they are living happily together. I just found that I had to match up two that had similar personalities.
